The author of several books for young adults, middle grade readers and children, Julie Anne Peters is known for incorporating wit, sarcasm, and zany plots into books that keep kids turning the pages and coming back for another Peters fix. Her award-winning titles, which include Define "Normal", Revenge of the Snob Squad, and How Do You Spell Geek", explore themes from divorce to animal rights and peer acceptance. Peters's use of humor to dissect such serious topics has led to her loyal readership as well as to laudatory reviews. "My stories embrace recurring themes that young readers can relate to: friendship, family, the search for self and love," Peters told Authors and Artists for Young Adults (AAYA). "These are universal themes for the child in all of us. My goal . . . is to use humor as a shield to ward off the blows that life delivers. I believe in humor as a healer.
